2000 VOLVO CHINA OPEN
 

DATE: May 18-21, 2000

VENUE:Shanghai Silport Golf Club

England's Simon Dyson sank a nerve-jangling eight footer for par at the last to lift the US$400,000 Volvo China Open by one stroke and became only the third man to secure two consecutive wins on the Davidoff Tour.

The 22-year-old Dyson, who win the Macau Open last week for his maiden professional victory, provide a miraculous and dramatic finish by saving par at the 18th par five hole despite a penalty stroke after landing in the water hazard with a wayward drive. With his hands trembling as he faced a testing putt for victory and the US$72,000 winner's cheque, Dyson courageously rolled in the last shot of the tournament to pip India's Jyoti randhawa for the title.
